When a bra campaign uses the phrase #banishthebounce for their twitter you just hope it’s true. I love going for a run but my sports bra was driving me insane. Ten minutes into my run I could feel the straps cutting into my shoulders. After complaining about my bad experience on twitter quite a few people recommended the Panache Sports Bra. I already have one of their bras and it’s my favourite one but sports bras are just a whole different thing. If you’re a D-cup or more you understand exactly what I mean. I’ve known so many girls who might wear a running bra and compression top just so that they can exercise. I tried on my new bra and jumped up and down in my livingroom and thought ok this could work. It’s the first time in ages that I’ve gone for a run and haven’t thought about my bra and how strapped and bound in I feel. Today I actually just thought about the cool air and how much I like running.
Love Austra’s video The Beat & The Pulse. They are are Canadian band: Katie Stelmanis, drummer Maya Postepski and bassist Dorian Wolf. Love Katie’s voice – she studied opera when she was 10 and plays viola and piano! How cool is she!
I don’t know any women who actually enjoy bra shopping even though we love lingerie and appreciate a good bra. When I go bra shopping I know it’s important to take some time out. I usually get about 5 or so bras and head towards the fitting room. This time I tried something different. I had a gift certificate for Leia Lingerie and I thought I better use it. It’s important to know ones bra size when shopping online – either get measured or measure yourself.
I bought 3 different bras, all different brands, and each of them fit perfectly – shock!
“Big or small, we love them all. At M&S you’ll find beautiful bras for every size at gorgeous prices. If nature blessed you with more than your fair share, you certainly won’t be charged extra for it. That big boob is all in the past.”
I love M&S. I think most of my bras come from there. On one hand it’s understandable that a 34A costs less as it uses far less fabric than a 40F cup. Realistically they don’t cost the same amount to make so why should they retail for the same cost? Well M&S customers spoke out and M&S changed their pricing! I love this ad – I think it’s witty and funny and smart that they address the issue.
